Wall St. Week Ahead-U.S. jobs and Russia to rule stocks

U.S. stock investors will take their cues this week from March jobs data and diplomacy to defuse East-West tensions over Russia's annexation of Ukraine's Crimea region. Friday's monthly jobs report, the most widely watched U.S. economic indicator, is expected to show that employers added 200,000 jobs in March to nonfarm payrolls, according to a Reuters poll of economists. Employers added 175,000 jobs to nonfarm payrolls in February after creating 129,000 new positions in January. When trading begins on Monday, investors will keep an eye on developments involving Russia and Ukraine.
